    Answer:

    B gets 5/13 of the candy bar.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that a candy bar is being shared between two people, A and B, and A gets 3/5 times as much as B, to determine what fraction of the bar does B get the following calculation must be performed:

    3/5 = 0.6

    1.6 + 1 = 100

    1 = X

    2.6 = 100

    1 = X

    100 / 2.6 = X

    38.46 = X

    38.46% = 0.3846 = 5/13

    Therefore, B gets 5/13 of the candy bar.
